Wow the description of the flag in the flag code is amusingly vague: "The flag of the United States shall be thirteen horizontal stripes, alternate red and white; and the union of the flag shall be forty-eight stars, white in a blue field."

According to the wikipedia page, the exact specification is given in "Executive Order 10834," but strictly it only applies to flags made for and by the federal government.

Unless the PC version is also locked to 30 fps, then I have a hard time believing this is the case. It seems more likely that it’s just a matter of the complexity of the world and visuals that make it harder to push more than 30 fps.

 

I bike as my primary form of commute / transportation, and whenever I hit a pothole or go over some particularly rough patches of road I worry that overtime this could damage the watch. Anyone have any insight into this? I did a bit of research and it seems like many watches these days have some sort of shock-resistance in the form of Incabloc or other technologies. But then I see posts like this which are worrying...

Dare I say Silksong? The first game was perfect in so many ways, I’m really excited to see in what ways the improve and build on it.

 

As title. Even better if whatever you use also helps with recommendations! I’ve been mostly using Goodreads, but Bookwyrm looks like a neat decentralized alternative. Does anyone have any experience with it?

I’m crossing my fingers hoping they’ll eventually have the option for 3rd-person game play, similar to Skyrim (and Starfield!). It feels like a waste to spend time collecting cool clothing and armor, as well as customizing our character, only to see them occasionally in a mirror.

Thanks for trying that! Inconsistencies like that are probably why comments don't sync correctly, right? For instance, on this thread (https://kbin.social/m/kbinMeta/t/10635/Today-at-23-00-GMT-there-will-be-a-30-minute-technical) there are 13 comments, whereas on the corresponding thread in Lemmy (https://lemmy.ml/post/1194271) only 3 comments show up.

That's possible! I thought that could be the issue. I was a bit confused because it looks like "posts" are put in the "microblog" category on kbin which I thought loosely corresponds to Mastadon-style posts. But maybe I'm wrong...

 

Found this on r/apple on Reddit. Also a nice exposition: https://daringfireball.net/linked/2023/06/09/apollo-reddit-demise.

 

Specifically, I'm trying to post (an image) to boston@lemmy.ml from my account on kbin.social. The post shows up on kbin.social, but when I go to https://lemmy.ml/c/boston, it doesn't seem to be there. Is there something special I need to do to ensure it's viewable?
